Today is our last day in New Hampshire . We visited Glen Ellis Falls in the White Mountians National Forest. Glen Ellis Falls is located just a half mile south of the Pinkham Notch Visitor Center on the Ellis River. It's one of the tallest falls in New Hampshire and surely one of the prettiest. It's very easy to get to and just a short walk from the road. You can get close enough to the falls to feel a shower of mist, very nice on a hot day!GLEN ELLIS FALLS : Height 64 feet. Here the forces of nature provide their own spectacular show. The fall of water attests to the tremendous powers of moving water.
